Indonesian And Malaysian Cooking - 1.0.1

The Malaysian and Indonesian islands are rich in agricultural produce, exotic spices and aromatic leaves. Apart from the original inhabitants, the islands' people are a mixture of Chinese, Hindus, Arabs and Dutch. While each group retained its own art, culture , religion and cooking - the blending of all these factors makes the Malaysian and Indonesian cuisine a gourmet's delight. Traditionally, 'meal time' on the islands provides a table laden with exciting foods. A variety of dishes are placed on the table at the same time allowing guests - and their host or hostess - to sample each delicacy and delight in the exotic aromas
